Hello oracles of wisdom.
I'm about to embark on another home reno, & this time I'll need a spray painting unit for priming weatherboards, doors, skirtings & architraves etc etc. I've no experience in this area but have a REAL compressor & will buy the appropriate spray unit whatever that may be (depending on what you mob reckon). My limited research so far seems to lead me in the directing of a HVLP pot system. It seems to have an advantage of minimal overspray, & I imagine that when priming weatherboards it would be handy to have the volume of a pot/suction setup instead of having to constantly refill a small pot on a gun. I'll be spraying with oil paints, but it would be nice to have a unit that can handle a broad range of spraying tasks (buy good once!)
Thanks in advance.
